agreed, they should be disqualified if they just buy sh*t that isn't even accurate

Especially Americans

Fellow cambodian American here 😚

Obviously there's a lot out there than you think. I'm American Cambodian. Born and raised in California.

Robert, the meat-kinda-don’t-have-much-flavor-guy. Dude is so insecure and keep saying others’ food are worse with the same exact reason.

Plastic Cambodian 😂🤣 how embarassing

She is adopted

They did it on purpose.

She's cute, she's there for the thumbnail, pretty gross really.

Looks good on camera?

It was filmed the same day.

It’s not a Khmer dish at all. « Khor Ko » is a Han ethnic Chinese dish (from Teochew dialect speakers), created in the Chaoshan cultural-linguistic region ➡️ in South of Fujian province & North of Guangdong province borders, Mainland China. I want a real ethnic Khmer dishes ; not Han Chinese, Viet or Siamese dishes that BuzzFeed finds in Cambodian restaurants in USA.

@@sonynuon1865 I won’t lie I find that surprising?? Idk whether or not what u say is true?? (Not saying ur wrong lol) but I find that a lot of khmer dishes share similarities in dishes with neighboring countries and vice versa. But where did u find about khor ko origins???

@@amisavyn3621they be lying

That girl is adopted that’s why she don’t know much about khmer culture

@@sonynuon1865 Is this dish made exactly the same way in Fujian and Guangdong or has it been altered to suit the taste of Cambodians? Kuy Teav is considered a Cambodian dish. Should we start calling it a Chinese dish? Kuy Teav in Cambodia isn't made the same way in mainland China and that's why it's considered a Cambodian dish. Mee Ka Tang doesn't taste the same as Chow Fun made in a Chinese restaurant. How about we start calling Cambodian curry dishes Indian dishes even though Cambodian curry is nothing like Indian curry. Or how about we start calling every "real Khmer" dishes that contains ingredients found in Ayurveda Indian dishes which would be most if not nearly all Khmer dishes. Teochew, along with Hokkien, Hainanese, Cantonese and Hakka, have lived in Cambodia for centuries, successfully integrated into Khmer culture, contributing to the Khmer cuisine, and keeps Khmer language, Khmer culture alive by passing it down to the next generation, even when they no longer live in Cambodia, to kids who are born outside of Cambodia. So Khor Ko, the way it's prepared by Cambodians, is considered a Cambodian dish.

That’s a whitewashed Cambodian lmao

She was raised by Saw ppl

😂😂😂 I never even spell it the right way! Like “khmer” I spell it Khmai 🤷‍♂️

Hi it’s a Han Chinese dish created in Mainland China, we never consider « Khor Ko » (our traduction) as Khmer.

@@sonynuon1865 is it still commonly eaten in Cambodia?

@@liliyurch2511 It is only eaten where there are chefs of Teochew-Han Chinese origin, even the Kinhs (majority ethnic group in Vietnam) translate this dish into « Bo Kho ». There is however a difference, Khmers love the version with coconut juice. Prahok Ktis would've been better here. BuzzFeed made another video with Teuk Kroeung, Sach Ko Jakak & Nom Banhchok Samlor Khmer. There are a lot of ethnicities in Cambodia, and we try to respect each culinary culture.

@@sonynuon1865 I never see kokor red like this I only know the green one

I love this! I love jollof. I love also the stew w mashed cassava flour or something

It's gonna be war when the other west Africans see this Jellof comment

I don't know! I just know that someone gave her a score of 1! I've never cooked anything before but I think I can beat her tho just by googling the recipe

I mean you should. It’s pretty delicious especially while pairing it with sliced baguettes

She was at a disadvantage, barely flying in to LA the day before

@@nicholassok5797 don't be in the competition then

Plot twist: there was no take on the dish 😂

Plot twist: she ordered take out curry and called it Kor Ko

Plot twist: none of us knew she was adopted until after filming date my plate. This was filmed right after.

Irrelevant. It’s a cooking competition essentially???

I thought that she made a mistake by giving the first one such a high score because you have no wiggle room to judge the others. So, I don’t mind that she changed her score, but buying the food was unforgivable.

But it’s not a Khmer ethnic food. I’m very disappointed, « Khor Ko » is just our prononciation of this Han Chinese dish created in Chaoshan cultural-linguistic region (Teochew speakers) of Mainland China. Even the Viets translate it into « Bo Kho ».

It’s not her fault- so it’s not embarrassing. She is trying to learn- that’s the farthest thing from embarrassing… come on. Though I do agree that they should have someone who knows better the culture if they want it to be a ‘competition’ context.

I think we do have to admit that the lack of effort was pretty cringe. They should have just left her out 😂

She adopted by white American parents bro don’t blame her

Why was william Hung on American got talent?

Or Robert! Making all of that!

But it’s a Han Chinese dish created in Chaoshan cultural-linguistic region in Mainland China. It would be better if the diaspora shows real Khmer ethnic dish.

Someone gave that lady's dish a 1! You like her representing cambodian's dish?

that would be an interesting series/video.

It’s not that deep bro

You call yourself Cambodian but you never heard or had Kor Ko? Face palm.

@@heythave it’s a dish that’s not eaten in my family. My mom doesn’t eat beef. It’s been a minute since I’ve had bo kho. 😋

@@WingChunBoyz the two dish you mentioned are Vietnamese. Are you a kampuchea kromg person?

@@heythave thit kho is the braised pork dish aka salar kaw and bo kho is salaw kaw ko. No, I am Cambodian from Cambodia. I can read and understand a little Vietnamese but I am not Khmer Krom.

We really shoulda done that. We messed up 😅🙇🏽‍♂️

The Ko in Kho Ko means beef. The pork belly and eggs version is Kho Jrook (pork) it is more caramelised and not as soupy 🙂

@@leesamizpee7331 true ya your right. My mom uses beef but she adds pork belly and hard boiled eggs since the broth is so rich in flavour, I guess it more so of an extra thing

Omg 😂😂😂 I literally though the same thing

Wanna call her Mee Kon lop if I ever see her in person 😡 do better Buzzfeed!

That’s harsh.

I think your refering to Samlaw kako

How is it understandable? It’s a cooking contest 😂 Circumstances are irrelevant
